Details

Bug 749316 added the Debugger object to chrome scratchpads. This no longer seems to work.
This was a side-effect of making the scratchpad use the remote debugging protocol: it no longer has direct access to the sandbox the evaluation takes place in. Can you say more about your use case to gauge the importance of supporting it?
There isn't a strong reason to have it there, IMO. It's convenient when building some tools, but the alternative is a 2-liner. However, scratchpad.js does still have the original code - it's just broken and doesn't do anything.

Scratchpad was removed in Bug 1519103 (Firefox 72). You can check the alternative in https://wiki.developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Deprecated_tools#Scratchpad .

The Scratchpad bug list was reviewed and I think this bug can be safely closed.
